6 months, and the 6-pack is gone...

In case you were wondering, I am referring to a 6-pack of ABS, not beer. Just thought I'd clear that up. Although, the 6 packs of beer are definitely gone, too...

There are few things more fun to lose your flat abs to than skittles, homemade bread, Reese's ice cream...

Or a baby bump!

There's 24 weeks of baby Jack inside me right now, putting me at 6 months pregnant.

I seriously do not know how that happened. I feel like I have slept through the last two months of my life. And I most definitely have not. How can I keep myself from 'sleeping' through the last 3 months? I really need to know, because currently I have a crib, a few onesies, some socks, and a painting for the room...

And not a single diaper.

And not a single drop of paint on the walls.

And no carseat...

Since this baby is already trying to make an appearance, I better get this show on the road.

Here's some baby stats for the statisticians among us. Basically meaning any woman that has any interest in babies at all.

* Jack is about 9 inches long (crown to rump) and about 1.7 pounds.
* He is most active between 11 AM - 2 PM and 10:30 PM - 2 AM
* He has hair, and if you had a little in utero camera, you could tell what color it is.
* He can open his eyes now! No more fused eyelids.
* My uterus is the size of a soccer ball.
* I have gained! 3 POUNDS! Woot!!!

Baby Jack seems to want to grace the world with his presence early. I have contractions every night from 10  to 2 AM. Some are Braxton Hicks, some are full blown contractions. It happens no matter how much water I drink, how much rest/activity I had that day, if I'm laying on my left side, no matter what I eat... and well, it wouldn't be that big of a deal if they weren't engaging my cervix (aka, making me dilate). So, I'm off to make sure I don't have a UTI and to hopefully NOT be put on bedrest!

Monday was Happy Viability-Day to me and Jack! Thank goodness for modern medicine making us mommies-to-be feel way less nervous!

I am definitely experiencing the more uncomfortable side of pregnancy now, but I'm on such a high about the fact that I AM pregnant all the time I don't ever take any Tylenol. I start crying every time I imagine having the baby, so I can't imagine what it'll be like when I actually DO have the baby...

Basically, yep, still in love with being pregnant.

3 months to go, people... 3 months. Can't wait to see that little face.
